Too Many Projects - Too Little Resources

Anonymous employee

Pros

In 20+ years, I haven't seen such great benefits. For the Sarasota area, the salaries are pretty good.

Cons

*The company is taking on too many projects without proper resources or systems to support them. *There is no real PMO, so projects are not properly supported; no governance, standards, stage gates, alignment between the Business & IT. *IT and Products are not aligned. *Direct reports to the CEO are not aligned, so decisions are not wholly agreed upon at the top, which gives varying messages to colleagues. *There is either is NO 3-5 year roadmap, or at least it's never been shared or well communicated throughout. *Communication among many silo'd teams is very poor. *Working with colleagues in three time zones can become difficult. I've never seen any of my team-members. *There is no COO, which is becoming an evident issue.

Pros

Every time I want to complain, I think about previous positions I've had and how hard it would be to find another company to work for that makes things this good for employees. Then I have to check myself and realize I shouldn't be such a complainer. Great place to work, great benefits, great great product... I really love it here.

Cons

My complaints are: processes are too complicated - great product that's easy to sell but more often than not you battle more internally than you do with the prospects to get the deal done. Lots of complaining entitled millennials. Managers always coming at you with projects that take time away from your core competencies. Often feels like there is a big disconnect and misalignment of priorities between upper level management and lower level employees. Example: often losing deals to high medical pricing, then seeing that insurance services is increasing revenue 100% YOY and cutting checks out to clients for overages... and then sales VPs are wondering why so many employees aren't hitting plan. Truly a 3000 employee startup.

Pros

A highly supportive culture driven by your peers and management who all share the same vision. A truly success inclusive not exclusive environment where your time to shine is inevitable.

Cons

Systems access during onboarding could have been better facilitated but overall a great company to work if you are into fun places to work or excellent leadership.
